EasyFor people looking to exercise their minds more than their bodies. There’s minimal walking and not too many stairs.
ModerateThese programs get you on your feet and include activities such as walking up to a mile in a day through a city and standing in a museum for a few hours.
ActiveFor people who enjoy walking as much as two miles a day, perhaps to explore historic neighborhoods or a nature trail.
Moderately ChallengingFor hardy explorers who enjoy a good physical challenge, spending most of their days on the go.
ChallengingGet ready to keep up with our highest-energy group. These demanding — and rewarding — programs are for seasoned outdoor enthusiasts.
Beautiful Tampa Bay, colorful Florida landscapes and buildings, world class museums and galleries, and a vibrant cultural scene beckon you to this lively city. Learn about the city’s history which began before Spanish Conquistador, Panfilo de Narvaez landed in 1528. Visit a hotel that offers a feast to the eyes as well as the palate and tells of the city’s boom, bust and renaissance through its own history. Stroll in the third-largest downtown waterfront park in North America, behind only Chicago and Vancouver. Visit the museums, galleries, and public art that have earned St Pete a reputation as one of the best arts and cultural communities in the country. Take advantage of ample free time to enjoy the many amenities in one of the world’s most livable cities.


Highlights
